Triumph t100r Daytona 500 description

This is a pretty much fully restored '71 t100r. VIN GG59028.

Full engine nuts & bolts rebuild including cleaning out the sludge trap. New clutch. Electronic ignition. New upgraded Amal carbs. lithium battery, new tires, oil pump replaced. Only leaks a few drops of oil. New rear shocks. Lots of seals and other trivial things. Valves recently adjusted, oil changed. This bike kept in heated - air conditioned garage with concrete floor and has never seen rain or salt. I have receipts for all work, mostly engine. Engine and 4 speed transmission tight, starts on first kick. Runs beautifully, I ride it to work frequently. Very reliable. Has turn signals, brake lights all work perfectly including the tach and speedo. I don't know if the mileage on the speedo is accurate.

There is a stain on the rider's left muffler from spilling battery acid. There is a dent in the rider's right muffler from the kick starter. I don't understand exactly why as they're both firmly mounted. (see photo). Otherwise, there is some external oil on the engine that I shower off now and then. This bike always serviced to the minute by an expert vintage Brit bike mechanic. Runs like a Swiss watch. I've had the bike for about 5 years.

I'm fully aware that no one gets the money from restoration back at sell time. It's for the love of the machine. I'm only entertaining selling as I have two other vintage Triumphs and three is getting to be too much to keep up. I don't have to sell this bike and I won't entertain any low-balls off line. If it doesn't sell, I'll keep it forever.

DiSalvo won the 2011 edition of the race on a Ducati 848 for Latus, and nearly did it again in 2012, finishing second on a Triumph Daytona 675R sporting a special livery in tribute to Gary Nixon.
